I had to fix a few mistakes... sorry for any confusion!

Enjoy!

"What?!" It was like a growl erupted in the form of that one word. I had never heard anything like it come from Caden before.

Benjamin opened the door to the room where their "parents" were, "See for yourself. They're gone."

Caden frantically searched the room before cursing as he threw the pillows across the room. I wrapped my arms around his waist and he went to shake me off but then pulled me close, "Sorry Bee. I didn't mean to push you away. Fuck I'm so sorry."

"Ssh. Just breathe." I asked the guards to be on highalert and double their patrols. Noone in and noone out. And to search the properties including the surrounding area. "We'll find them."

He held me against his side, "I will never push you away."

"I know Cade." I love you. His face relaxed before he nodded, sighed and turned to Ben in full Alpha mode.

"Who saw them last?"

"I gave them breakfast."

"Was anyone in after you?"

"No." He said quietly.

After a few more questions I cut in, "Benji this was not your fault. They had tons of time to plan an escape. After the DNA swabbing and samples they probably figured out that we would know they were lying. It was a matter of time that we should've seen coming but didn't. No one's to blame. We simply have to find them, and then find out why they did this. Clear your head and focus."

He nodded, "This morning they were overly nice and asked more questions than normal. I didn't tell them anything and left. I heard them talking quietly but I couldn't make out what they were saying."

"Okay so they left sometime after breakfast. Bee they could have a huge headstart by now-" he stopped when the lead perimeter guard mentally told us they found their trail and we all left the room.

He told us moments later that their trail randomly stops in the neutral area between the territories.

"What does that mean Caden? There couldn't have been a plane or chopper there to lift them out; we would've heard it."

"And they didn't change smells since there were no smells there."

I eyed the phone in the kitchen, Should I call Paul? Caden nodded and started talking to Benjamin going over every question they asked in extreme scrutiny.

Two hours later we went over all the facts we had. "We" referring to Caden, Ben, Daniel, Paul, and I.

Caden's real, honourable parents, were dead. I think that was extremely relieving to everyone involved. His parents kept their good name. And rightfully so.

The couple that were here were frauds.

They used DNA presumably taken from the short-time-missing luggage and swapped their own DNA to match.

They knew about their parents and had been planning this since their death over a decade ago.

They had stayed on our premises until they escaped.

Their scent ends in the middle of a neutral area.

Why they were here, what their plan was... everything we needed to know... we had no answer for.
